Chapter 17: The Yellow King's Holy Grail
"Don't drag me!"
Chen Jing subconsciously looked back, and saw that the skeleton monster in a small raincoat was lying on his back, hugging him tightly like a koala, and he didn't dare to let go for a moment.
"I can't run! Hurry down! ”
Chen Jing ran desperately, and scolded helplessly on his face.
"I won't say anything if you pull the monster into our neighborhood! Add weight to me at this time! You're afraid I'm not dying fast enough, are you?! ”
"Help, help, help, help, help!" The little skeleton shouted like a repeater, and this sentence was the clearest from beginning to end.
Seeing its trembling and terrified appearance, Chen Jing sighed and stopped scolding, mainly because he felt that it was useless to scold......
"Catch up, catch up!" The little skeleton suddenly screamed again.
In fact, without the little skeleton's reminder, Chen Jing could feel that the person was rapidly approaching him, because the sound of snapping was getting closer and closer!
He neither dared to turn back nor slow down.
I can only run as hard as I can.
Until he saw the people crawling on the outer walls of the community......
"Don't say that you recruited these dozens of people."
Chen Jing stopped helplessly, looking at the people who surrounded him from all directions, and his mood was so complicated.
Kui Nan was still in the building and didn't come out.
At this moment, it is obviously unrealistic to want her to run out and save the scene.
To put it another way.
Chen Jing felt that he was dead.
"No...... It's not ......" the little skeleton began to stutter again, vaguely crying, "No...... I don't know...... They...... Where did you come from......"
After saying that, the little skeleton seemed to feel guilty, and suddenly let go of his hand and jumped off Chen Jing's back.
"Right...... Sorry ......"
"I ...... Exert oneself...... Deflect ......"
"Sir...... Let's run......"
Hearing the little skeleton say this, Chen Jing couldn't laugh or cry.
He felt that this skeleton cub's idea was very stupid and naïve, and you could only lure a few of these dozens of people away......
"Can't be rushed...... Calm down first......"
Chen Jing said as if talking to himself, looking left and right expectantly, desperately trying to find a way out.
But the current situation made him a little desperate, seeing that there were people around him in all directions, and it was obviously unrealistic to escape on two legs......
"I can only gamble a handful ......"
Chen Jing's heartbeat was uncontrollably fast, because he already understood that no one could be relied on now.
Whether it is the seemingly invincible grandfather or the newly recognized boss Kui Nan, they are all unreliable, at least now there is no chance to rely on them.
Now, at this moment.
The only one who can rely on himself is himself.
"This ...... This is...... Relic ......"
The little skeleton looked at the Holy Grail that Chen Jing took out of his arms, and the soul fire in his empty eyes kept beating.
"You know?" Chen Jing held the Holy Grail tightly, as if holding his last glimmer of hope.
"Yes...... Smell it......" said the little skeleton, "from the lost old days...... Items that have been left behind ......"
Chen Jing pretended to smile calmly and didn't speak, looking at the Holy Grail in his hand, hoping that it would be the same as recorded in the reward details.
"It's hard to get out of that boring life...... I don't want to die like this......"
Chen Jing's eyes flashed with a hint of ferocity that was rare to see, looking at the people who kept coming to them from all directions, he just wanted to fight again.
It's not his style to sit back and die.
After all, in the video games he loves to play, the characters he plays have to desperately drag a few pads even if they die, and even if they can't, they have to find a way to disgust them......
"The blood of the user is needed...... No wonder there is a copper thorn in the cup......"
Chen Jing looked at the long thorn in the holy grail that smelled of blood, gritted his teeth and pressed his thumb violently.
This time it seemed that the force was not well controlled, and the sharp long thorn almost touched the bone, and a sharp stinging sensation hit in an instant, followed by a piercing burning sensation that scratched the heart.
Chen Jing could feel that something was losing from his body.
"Sir...... You...... It's okay......"
The flames in the little skeleton's eyes flickered, and the tone of his voice revealed an undisguised concern.
He saw that Chen Jing's face turned white almost instantly, and the breath of life was rapidly decaying, and even his heart was no longer beating as strong as before.
At this moment, Chen Jing gave him the feeling of being a seriously injured and dying patient, as if he was only one step away from death......
Meanwhile.
The foodies, who kept coming to Chen Jing and the little skeleton, stopped all movements without warning.
They were like beasts under some unknown threat, and a hoarse roar began to come from the "large" gleft in their torsos.
"No wonder the old man won't let me use this kind of thing......"
Chen Jing could detect the changes in his body, and his eyes were full of helplessness.
But now, if you don't use it, you won't even have a chance to live, and maybe you'll be the first to hang up in this exam.
"How much more do you have to absorb before you can stop......" Chen Jing gritted his teeth and glared at the Holy Grail in his hand.
At this moment, the hourglass-like cup has begun to tremble, and the twisted and strange metal patterns that appear on the surface have gradually brightened up like LED strips from the original dull brass color.
As the Holy Grail absorbed more blood, the more dazzling the light became, making it impossible to look at it directly, and even Chen Jing and the little skeleton had to look away.
And in this dazzling yellow light, the Holy Grail trembled more and more, and even Chen Jing almost couldn't hold it out of his hand.
"This relic ...... It's so powerful...... I'm ...... in the wasteland Never seen ......"
The little skeleton said in fear, its thin and withered body trembling.
This burst of light from the Yellow King's Holy Grail almost lined the soul fire in his eyes like a candle in the wind, as if it would be extinguished at any moment.
"First...... Mr...... You...... Are you alright......"
At this time, Chen Jing had no intention of taking care of this skeleton cub, he was almost in a state of imminent coma, and the sharp pain like tearing deep in his brain made his consciousness begin to become chaotic.
I don't know if it's because of the hallucination due to excessive blood loss, or if the Holy Grail really caused some kind of unexplained mystery.
In the tinnitus caused by the violent tremor of the Holy Grail, Chen Jing clearly heard an ancient chant.
That's not Chinese.
But he could inexplicably hear the meaning of every word.
Is it a hallucination......
Chen Jing looked at the huge phantom that emerged from the Holy Grail in front of him, and only felt that the dark night sky was covered by the ragged yellow robe on its body.
"In the Lost Kakosha Church......"
"No one mourns the empty past with silence anymore......"
"The Stars of Silence Disturb the ...... of Lake Harry"
"And the old prophet who sleeps in the lake......"
